The
Ultimate Fighting Championship will visit Cincinnati for the
first time since 2007 when the Las Vegas-based promotion returns to
the Queen City on May 10.

No matchups have been announced for the event, which will take
place at U.S. Bank Arena and air live on Fox Sports 1.

The UFC last set down in Cincinnati for UFC 77, which was headlined
by Anderson
Silva’s championship rematch with Rich
Franklin. “The Spider” captured the UFC middleweight title from
the American one year prior at UFC 64, knocking Franklin out with a
barrage of strikes in just 2:59.

Although “Ace” lasted twice as long in their UFC 77 rematch, the
Ohioan ultimately succumbed to Silva’s brutal standup attack,
falling 67 seconds into the second period. The event drew 16,054
fans to U.S. Bank Arena for a live gate of $2.54 million.
